This question was asked by a recent guest who attended our church. If you check out our web site CharlotteNewHopeChurch.com you will find a link "What We Believe". But most of the time I have found that people are questioning what are the basic things we believe and practice. Here are some of the basic things we believe: The Bible-It is the inspired word of God and its teachings are still true today. Sin-Every person has sinned and fallen short of the glory of God.Salvation-Only comes through believing and receiving Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. Jesus Christ-That Jesus Christ is the only Son of the Father, conceived of the Holy Spirit, and born of the Virgin Mary. That Jesus was crucified, buried, and raised from the dead. That He ascended to heaven and is today at the right hand of the Father as the Intercessor. Holy Spirit-When Jesus ascended into heaven He had said He would not leave us as orphans but that the promise of the Father, the Holy Spirit would come to abide with us forever. When a person is born again of the spirit the Holy Spirit comes into their life. Believers are then encouraged to also be filled, baptized with the Holy Spirit. These are some of the basics of what we believe and practice.
